Elegant and indulgent, these chocolate almond tartlets feature a crisp almond flour crust filled with smooth dark chocolate ganache and topped with crushed almonds and gold flakes — perfect for special occasions or a luxurious bite-sized treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and diced
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 cup dark chocolate (60–70% cocoa), chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons chopped almonds
  • Gold leaf or edible gold (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease mini tartlet pans or line with parchment.
  2. Mix almond flour, all-purpose flour, and powdered sugar in a bowl. Add diced butter and blend until crumbly. Add egg yolk and vanilla, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  3. Press dough into tartlet pans and prick the bottoms with a fork. Bake for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool.
  4. Heat cream in a saucepan until just simmering, then pour over chopped chocolate. Let sit 2 minutes, then stir until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Pour ganache into cooled tartlet shells. Gently tap to smooth tops. Chill for 1 hour.
  6. Top with chopped almonds and gold leaf if using. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Don’t overbake the tart shells to keep them tender.
  • Let ganache cool slightly before pouring to avoid separation.
  • Chill thoroughly before serving to help the ganache set beautifully.
